Queen Elizabeth
 

God bless Queen Elizabeth.
Her reign of 70 years was incredible.
Thankfully she died peacefully surrounded by her children.

It will be interesting to see the pomp and circumstance with a coronation of a new monarch. It will be wall to wall coverage - the networks have been planning this for decades!

The first one in my lifetime!

What to know about King Charles III, Britain's new monarch - CBS News

Will take a lot of time to get used to the title King Charles III.

She was an extraordinary woman during extraordinary times. It will be interesting to see if the Monarchy can survive without her.

King Charles is 73 years old. Rather old to be starting your first job!

This sets a record for the oldest British monarch to be crowned. The record had been held by William IV who was only 64 when he became King.

Hardly his first job! King Charles worked faithfully and full-time as Prince of Wales for decades, and it really was a LOT of work. Now he may well serve as king for another twenty years. Now Prince William will be working full-time as Prince of Wales. These are not easy jobs.

Her coronation was aired on black and white TV when I was ten years old. I remember my mother watching it and shushing me, telling me it was a once in a lifetime event and she (my mother) would never see another. She was correct. It was amazing to watch, even with early 1950s TV technology.

Queen Elizabeth II was an amazing woman whom I have always admired for her dignity, dedicated service to her country and indeed the world, incredible self control, and ability to face and successfully deal with more difficult challenges than I could even imagine encountering.

Over the centuries it always has.
She was a great lady, and a hard act to follow.
But follow we will.
We always do!

:pray: Our deepest condolences.

Queen
 

God save the King.

Sorry about the death of anyone, but 70 years of what??

A lot of wasted money.

Chucky is next................wow wee.

I had you as a better person than those remarks.
I was wrong again!

I always greatly admired the Queen. I know she has had her heart broken several times in the last few years but always handled everything with class and grace.

I'm proud to be half British. May her memory forever be a blessing. An incredibly successful life.

God save the queen
 

r.i.p.
A role model of dignity and grace
